rwsf::LogTimeFormatter Class Reference

Reformats log messages with the message's log level and a timestamp. More...

#include <rwsf/core/LogTimeFormatter.h>

Detailed Description

The LogTimeFormatter prepends the message with the message's log level and a timestamp. This information is separated by a bar (|) character.

Do not instantiate this class directly. Instead, use ".createLogTimeFormatter" in the logger configuration file when specifying a formatter property. For more information on the Agent logger, see the logging chapter in the User Guide.

The following example demonstrates using the LogTimeFormatter in a logger configuration file, typically <installdir>\conf\loggers.xml:

<logger name="logger" class="rwsf_core.createFileLogger">
  <property name="filename" value="${RWSF_HOME}/logs/agent.log"/>
  <property name="formatter" value="rwsf_core.createLogTimeFormatter"/>
</logger>
